Nokia.com UK visitors being redirected to Microsoft’s mobile site


Microsoft has started phasing out the Nokia branding. In the latest move, the software and tech giant is redirecting the visitors of Nokia.com UK site to its own mobile website.

Microsoft new website

Users of the Nokia UK website are being informed that, ‘Nokia devices and services have moved to a new website”. The company is also urging them to “step inside our new home.” At present, the company is redirecting the visitors to its own site only for the Nokia UK website, but it might soon apply the same to other Nokia websites in the world. Microsoft’s Mobile Devices site now features larger images and pages focused on phones and tablets, accessories, apps, and support.

The latest move comes from Microsoft as it is trying to shed Nokia and Windows Phone branding from its products. Earlier this month, a leaked internal document from the company revealed the same. While last week, an upcoming Windows Phone was spotted with new  ‘Windows’ branding.
